Abstract

This article analyzes the issue of intertextual relations and literary tradition in the poetry of Alexander Faynberg. The poet’s poetic heritage is taken as the object of the research, and the role of intertextual connections and artistic tradition in his works is examined. The article explores the links between Faynberg’s poems and classical literature, as well as the issues of cultural memory and poetic dialogue. During the research, the study relies on intertextual theory and scholarly views explaining relations between literary texts. In particular, the theoretical approaches of Julia Kristeva and Mikhail Bakhtin are used as the methodological basis. The research concludes that intertextual relations and literary tradition in Faynberg’s poetics constitute an important component of the poet’s poetic thinking.
